Hey there, tributes! In case you missed our tweet last night, Vanity Fair posted a photo of the main Hunger Games tributes, plus an interview with J-Law!
Oh, I'm sorry. I seem to have uploaded an image from a Gap catalog by mistake.
But seriously, it's a really cool feature, because if you go to the VF site and put your mouse arrow over each person in the photo, you can read about the actor, their character and how they landed the part. I really enjoyed learning more about everyone's audition process until I got to Isabelle Fuhrman (Clove), who is basically like: I loved the books! I wrote a letter to Gary Ross and told him so! And then I got the part! WHAT. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Maybe we should've spent less time telling ole G-Ross what to do and more time telling him to CAST US IN HIS MOVIE.
Anyhoo, the point of this post isn't to be jealous of 18-year-olds. It's to perform scientific analysis on this photo! So gather yr observations, then hop on the party line.
I'll start us off by focusing on the intentional grouping of Cato, Rue and Peeta. Cato, you're so BIG! Rue, you're so TINY! Peeta, you're so... meh! (But hey, at least he's got the baker's son pudge happening. That's legit.) Also, trust Vanity Fair to make Foxface look less Foxface-ish. I SMELL PHOTOSHOP.
Shameless Self-Promotion!
